"What I find most valuable about this solution, is that the user experience is very simple.""The technical support is good.""Veeam has a "next, next, finish" installer, and the overall deployment is straightforward. The deployment is easy because Veeam is compatible with all our VMware services and VMs. Veeam Backup and Veeam ONE are integrated into vCenter or vSphere site deployments, so we don't need to deploy each server one by one.""The most valuable feature is the ability to pick up individual files.""It's simple to use.""What I found most valuable in Veeam Agent for Linux is that it can unify machines and even simplify management.""Veeam Agent for Linux's most valuable feature is the compatibility with virtual machines, such as VMware.""The ease of use for the graphical interface and the ease of installation are the most valuable features of this solution."

Cons
"There is room for improvement in stability.""The GUI has room for improvement.""It's a global feature that the customer thinks they don't have enough tools to manage, to copy, to delay, and to classify the object file in the backup directory. So they need more tools to manage files in object directory.""Additional features I would like to see are the ability to restore to different vendors, AWS and Azure, and/or the ability or take the information out of the AWS cloud.""The solution has the option to take backup on-prem servers, but it's not very efficient.""The GUI could be slightly improved.""The UI is a little dated and hard to use. Some of the buttons are a bit small. You have to go into the menu to get the settings you want.""More documentation would be helpful, especially some step-by-step documents for recovery scenarios."

More N2WS Backup & Recovery Cons →

"It's scalable, but it's not scalable on every platform.""Technical support could be improved.""More Linux systems should be made compatible with the solution.""It would be much better if more applications were supported on the Linux side. For example, their agent for Windows not only can back up the Windows machine, but it can also back up Active Directory for granular restore, SQL servers, Exchange, Oracle, SharePoint, etc. When it comes to Linux, only Oracle databases are supported. There are workarounds, though.""They could be more customer-friendly.""One problem in Veeam Agent for Linux is that you can't use your license for all your machines because you don't have a virtual machine, so if you're going to add machines and scale, you'd need to pay extra.""The price of Veeam Agent for Linux could be reduced.""We are currently waiting for the continuous backup process."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The purchasing process through the AWS Marketplace is easy. Just click the button."
  • "The pricing and licensing on AWS is fine, because you can do it for smaller tiers depending on your number of instances, so it's not that scary."
  • "AWS adds more features and offer things for free, or cheaply. Therefore, we will be evaluating AWS Data Lifecycle Manager, because it will probably do backups. Thus, make sure the product that you are using is competitive or adds more value than AWS."
  • "It's very economical and worth the cost."
  • "It has very good pricing per instance and comes with three options, for both small and large environments, to fit your needs."
  • "The price is not cheap, nor is it costly."
  • More N2WS Backup & Recovery Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Licensing costs are $300,000 USD yearly, and we pay for three years at a time."
  • "It's a subscription based license, which is started on a yearly basis. Currently the licensing is split between three editions: standard, enterprise, and enterprise plus. As long as you check the comparison between the additions and make sure that you have what you need, there are no extra costs with Veeam."
  • "The solution is rather expensive and I think the price is too high."
  • "The costing is very competitive."
  • "Licensing costs are monthly."
  • "Price-wise it's good."
  • "We have purchased a license to use Veeam Agent for Linux and the additional support. The overall cost of Veeam Agent for Linux is expensive."
  • "There's the principal license for Veeam Agent for Linux, and then you need to buy additional licenses for your machines."
